Men cannot take 'no' for an answer but keep doing thousand more infuriating things to shelter their fragile ego. In this case, a man from the Indian matrimony service, flipped out when a woman told him about her past relationships with men as if there are dating rules which a woman ought to follow while men choose to plague the world with dishonesty.
It is no news to us that we all are sensitive to lies in a relationship. As partners, both of them are open about their dating history - if not clearly, at least they put forth a partial picture without fabrication in any shape or form. Although this is ideal, not many men choose to follow this.

So many people have dated in their college life - expecting some drama or a break from boring lectures, or even someone to bunk classes and go to the movies with while their friend gives them proxy. Why does it bother this "rishta-ready" man so much that he calls her names in his head? This classic example of "pavitra-rishta," takes us to sexism in which the rightly guessed agents - Indian politicians look for more ways to sexualise the women around them.

A report dates 2021, Gulabrao Patil, a Shiv Sena leader and minister from Maharashtra, is the most recent member of the list of politicians to have said offensive things about women. He made a comparison between Hema Malini's cheeks and the roads in his Jalgaon, Mathura, district. Despite the widespread outcry over sexist comments made by Indian leaders, little seems to have changed. Insecure men like him need to pull other women down in order to feel more confident. What women cannot do, is understand on men's behalf, how ridiculous they sound.
